Objective:To understand the responsiveness of community health service institutions in Henan Province. Methods:This research collected information through questionnaire investigations. The object of the investigations is key informants familiar with community health service institutions. Various dimensions of responsiveness within Henan province community health service institutions are determined through a multiple-input pecking order graph. The fuzzy comprehen-sive evaluation method is used to evaluate the level of responsiveness. Responsiveness inequality index is used to measure the distribution of reactions. Results:A total of 431 valid key informants were surveyed. The various dimensions of the questionnaire of Cronbach alpha coefficient was greater than 0. 623;the total scale of the Cronbach alpha coefficient was 0. 850;the correlation coefficient of each dimension of test-retest reliability were greater than 0. 907. The levels of responsive-ness and distribution index were 8. 33 and 0. 2744, respectively;each dimension by order of importance:timely attention>dignity>infrastructure>communication>confidentiality >social support >selective >autonomy. Approximately 50% of key informants considered that vulnerable groups in community health service institutions were sometimes or often treated unfairly. Conclusion:Key informants considered the responsiveness level of overall higher community health service institu-tions in Henan Province was high, and the distribution of responsiveness was relative equilibrium. However, there is a large shortage of infrastructure, privacy protection, doctor-patient communication, etc.

Methods Wistar rats were divided into uninephrectomized rats(group A), streptozotocin diabetic rat(group B). Blood glucose, serum insulin level and body weight, kidney weight, kidney weight/body weight as well as renal tissue protein contents were observed after 1, 4 weeks of streptozotocin injection. The expression of TGF?_1, precollagen 1?(Ⅳ) and fibronectin mRNA were measured by Northern blot analysis, and TGF?_1 protein by Western blot analysis in kidney cortex. In addition, ACE activities were determined by fluorimetric assay in plasma, kidney cortex and medulla. Results Group B demonstrated significantly elevated blood glucose and decreased serum insulin level. Kidney weight、kidney weight/body weight and renal tissue protein contents progressively increased despite total body weight loss. There was significant(P

Purpose:To assess the therapeutic value of perc utaneous portal vein chemoembolization (PVE) for primary hepatic carcinoma (PHC) with portal vein tumor thrombus. Methods:45 unresectable PHC with portal vein tumor thrombus cas es were randomly divided into two groups. The observation group was treated with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE)+PVE, while the control group wa s treated with TACE only. The changes of AFP, response rates of portal vein tumo r thrombus and survival rates of one year were analyzed respectively. Results:The levels of AFP before and after treatment were(730 ?190)?g/L and (515+?395)?g/L in the observation group,(752?183)?g/L a nd (710?213)?g/L in the control group respectively. The difference between t he two groups was significant (P

Objective To investigate the clinical and imaging features of Foot-Yangming meridian-muscle syndrome of knee osteoarthritis(KOA) so as to promote the normalization and standardization of the meridian-muscle therapies. Methods A total of 31 KOA cases (involving 31 knees) of Foot-Yangming meridian-muscle syndrome were included into the study group , and 31 healthy volunteers (involving 31 knees) served as the control group. A retrospective research of patellofemoral relationship was carried out based on the clinical and imaging features. Results The differences of Insall index and patella index between the study group and control group were insignificant(P> 0 . 05), but the differences of patellofemoral index , patellofemoral congruence angle, and external patellar angle between the study group and control group were significant(P<0.01). Conclusion The patellofemoral relationship disorder is one of main lesions in Foot-Yangming meridian-muscle syndrome of KOA.

Objective To study the clinical importance of TCM used in solidified therapy of colorectal cancer after radical resection. Method Prospective cohort study was applied to the trial, 84 cases in Xiyuan Hospital were selected to compare with 78 cases in western medicine hospital in the same time. The rates of relapse-metastasis and disease free survival of two groups were observed. Nine possible factors influencing disease-free survival were selected to analyze with COX regression model. Results 1-year, 2-year and 3-year relapse-metastasis rate of the teatment group were 0, 4.08% and 20% respectively, those were 5.12%, 22.91% and 36.11% in the control group. 1-year, 2-year and 3-year disease-free survival rate of teatment group were 100%, 95.91% and 80%, those were 94.87%, 77.08% and 63.88% in the control group. The main prognostic factors were lymph nodes metastasis and therapy. Conclusion TCM used in postoperative colorectal cancer could prevent relapse and metastasis.

Objective: To investigate the effect of irrational use of traditional Chinese patent medicines (CPM) on medication safety.Methods: The adverse drug reaction (ADR) reports on traditional CPM (including traditional Chinese medicine for injection) in our hospital during January 2013 to October 2016 were collected and analyzed retrospectively.After finding the corresponding prescriptions, the situation of irrational drug use in the reports including indications, usage and dosage, combination of traditional CPM, combination of Chinese and western medicines and course were analyzed, and the rate of irrational drug use was calculated.Results: A total of 217 reports were collected including 217 patients.The primary diseases ranked top three were cardio-cerebral vascular system diseases, digestive system diseases and respiratory system diseases.The cases involved 81 kinds of drugs, and among them, 37 cases were induced by Shenmai injection.The rate of irrational drug use associated with indications, usage and dosage, combination of traditional Chinese patent medicines, combination of Chinese and western medicines and course was 6.45% , 5.99% , 2.76% , 0.92% and 1.84% , respectively, and the total rate was 17.97% (39/217).Conclusion: The irrational drug use maybe one of the important factors related to ADR of CPM.According to syndrome differentiation, CPM should be used rationally, and pharmaceutical care should be strengthened to reduce the incidence of ADR.

Purpose To detect whether a 3243 point mutation existed in age related macular degeneration (AMD). Methods Twenty six cases of wet form AMD patients, ten cases of dry form AMD patients were selected,and compared with twenty nomal controls. After collecting anti coagulated blood samples, total cellular DNA were extracted and purified. Using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment long polymorphism techniques, the mtDNA A→G point mutation at position 3243 were detected. Results After cleaveded by restriction endonuclease Apa I, a 294 bp fragment remained only in all detected DNA samples including twenty six wet form AMD, and ten dry form AMD. No any other fragment appeared. The result showed that there was no A→G mutation at position 3243 found in AMD. Conclusion It is suggested that mtDNA 3243 point mutation due to maternal inheritance might be not concerned with both wet form AMD and dry form AMD.

Objective:To observe any effect of function-oriented training on the balance of recovering stroke survivors and on their ability in the activities of daily living.Methods:Sixty stroke survivors in recovery were randomly divided into an observation group ( n=30) and a control group ( n=30). The control group received routine rehabilitation training, while the observation group underwent function-oriented training for 6 weeks. Before and after the intervention, both groups were evaluated using the Berg balance scale (BBS), the Fugl-Meyer lower extremity assessment (FMA-L), the timed up-and-go test (TUGT) and the modified Barthel index (MBI). Results:After the treatment, significant improvement was observed in all of the measurements in both groups. The improvements in the average BBS, FMA-L and MBI scores and in the TUGT times of the observation group were significantly better than those of the control group.Conclusion:Function-oriented training can improve the balance and the ability in the activities of daily living of stroke survivors more effectively than the routine therapy.
